The third point of view:
Back at Lincolnshire...
Akim observed his punishment to the end: a week of being caged in at the palace. He attended to his princely duties but he didn't take a step outside the palace and had his cell phone confiscated.
He was lucky enough that the secret cell phone that Max got him was not discovered, however, he made no effort to use that to call Anika either.
Anika.
That name made fury burn in Akim's heart and his fist clenched. To think that Anika was one of the rebels, well, might be one of the rebels and might have been using him all along? He only got angry thinking about it.
She was bold, he had to give her that. Once he discovered that she had intentionally approached him to lure him to the rebels, he would skin the life out of her himself. However, amid the fact that Akim was angry, he felt a bit heartbroken. He had actually thought she was into him. She was the first girl he liked, you know.
